In an interview with Bored Panda, the artist said she loved drawing since she was little. “However, I only started considering it as a career option when I began to visit art schools, trying to figure out where to go after high school,” said Vivianne. “I had studied 2D animation at the Utrecht School of the Arts and now work as an animator for an upcoming series for Amazon Prime.”

She came up with the idea for this project during her first year in art school. She had just started learning how to draw digitally and only drew fan art.

“I just thought it would be interesting to see how the villains might have acted and looked like when they were just naive little kids while trying to maintain their key personality traits at the same time,”  said the artist. “That, and I just liked drawing cute stuff.”

Vivianne said she started with Ursula, her favorite character and worked through a list of her other personal favorites. “At first, I wanted to recreate all of the villains but at some point, I just got tired of the project and wanted to move on to other stuff,” said the artist.

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
